California: Rejection of signatures in first stage of Fairfax recall results in questions about clerk/town attorney

The recall effort against Fairfax Vice Mayor Lisel Blash and Councilmember Stephanie Hellman is now facing further questions, as the clerk rejected the submission for the first stage, claiming that there weren't enough signatures handed in and then allegedly refused to answer questions on the requirements needed to get the recall on the ballot (or hand back the original signatures for reuse). The town attorney also refused to provide answers to the questions.

The issue seems to be their support for rent control and a development plan. 

Petitioners need about 1500 signatures in 90 days.
